Hello, I'm 44, and have driven 240 saloons with B230 since 2008. I've also had a 85' 360 that rusted away. It was a good, comfy and practical car, would much like to have one again.
I'm proud of only having had RWD cars (not counting a mistake I did in my youth, a Renault 5 I owned just a few days, the seller was kind and bought it back for the same price ). Not sure if I'll maintain my good record, I imagine a V70 being my next daily driver. One thing I like about the Volvos I've had, is their good torque at lower rpms, for being petrol engines. The redblock engine suits me well. I don't like high rpm, and very seldom exceed 3000. Another thing, of course, I can do much of the work on the car myself, keeping the cost down.

40 here, I'll be in a MY2019 XC90 D5 Inscription in 4 weeks time.
Previous vehicles: Volvo S40 (loved it, put 50k miles per year on it and it didn't complain) Skoda Superb MY2012 I think (great car) Jaguar XF Saloon MY2013 (imperfect but fun nevertheless) Audi A6 Avant MY2016 (technically perfect but totally characterless) Really looking forward to, hopefully, the right balance of quality and character! |
